Track Lyrics

Satellite Lyrics

[Verse 1]
They walked across the strip to the kittycats' clutch
I'm in love with a girl named Satellite
And I know that she'll take me home tonight
[Verse 2]
They're very cute, so select them quickly
Perhaps one day, you'll strike a hotter match
I'm in love with a girl named Edison
And her sweetness is my only medicine
[Outro]
Satellite
Goin' right, ba ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba, ba...

Dayton, Ohio-19 Something and 5 Lyrics

3 ContributorsDayton, Ohio – 19 Something and 5 LyricsA meditation on Guided by Voices' hometown, Dayton, Ohio.
A live version of this song would be released as a 7" single in 2000 as part of the Fading Captain Series.Isn't it great to exist
At this point in time?
Where the produce is rotten
But no one's forgotten
On strawberry Philadelphia Drive
Children in the sprinkler, junkies on the corner, corner
The smell of fried foods and pure hot tar
Man, you needn't travel far to feel completely alive
On strawberry Philadelphia Drive (Drive)
On a hazy day in 19 something and 5

Is She Ever? Lyrics

1 ContributorIs She Ever? LyricsIs she ever with intent when she likens herself to a crow?
Will she crow and say bingo?
"I'm a believer," she tells me
But is she ever going to cry
When the directors bark from out there in the dark?
Fly sister vibrate, you were automatically free
The moment you came to me
Is she ever coming back for me?
Is she ever coming back for me?
Say it loud and we shall see
Is she ever coming back for me?

Ha Ha Man Lyrics

1 ContributorHa Ha Man LyricsStrangely, an alternate full-band version of this song was released on Suitcase in 2000, purporting to be from 1993. However, due to its sonic quality, the involvement of John Shough on bass guitar, and the… Read MoreĀ One, two, three, four
His merchandise is sublime
But don't laugh at the ha ha man
While you were gawking, I was talking
And squawking with the ha ha man
And so now I think breakfast is the plan
Are you coming with the ha ha man?
Ha ha man, ha ha man
(It's a ridiculous concept, everyone's laughing but me)
Ha ha, ha ha, ha ha, ha ha, ha ha, ha ha, ha ha, ha
(It's a ridiculous concept, everyone's laughing but me)

158 Years of Beautiful Sex Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Taken aside and lectured
On how the people do not act
When forced and revealing hidden charms
The last text on village firearms
[Chorus]
Loads of creamy music
And lots of time to make it
Behind the steamy newsroom
They wouldn't dare to fake it
[Verse 2]
Lasting forever
Through radioactive weather
You do what you do, shake what it is
Add 'em up, yeah: 158 years of beautiful sex
[Chorus]
Loads of creamy music
And lots of time to make it
Behind the steamy newsroom
They wouldn't dare to fake it
Lasting forever...

Reptilian Beauty Secrets Lyrics

2 ContributorsReptilian Beauty Secrets LyricsThis song was first released on the compilation Volume 14: Reading ā€˜95 Special in September 1995, under the name ā€œSnuff Movie (She’s Gone)ā€.
The song would later be reworked as ā€œIdiot Princessā€ in 1999… Read MoreĀ She's got the face
She's got a face that makes me happy
I never thought about how lovely it was
Until one day she went over and out
Over and out
Over and out
When will she come back to me?
Over and out
She's got the face
She's got a face that makes me happy
I never thought about how lovely it was
Until one day she went over and out
Over and out
Over and out
When will she come back to me?
Over and out
